Medium skin fade then show them a picture of what I want the top done like (either previous one I’ve taken of myself of something I’ve saved on Pinterest).

Can't think of anything worse, being in front of a mirror in front of other people, having to make small talk, having the leave the house, and on top of all that they charge you!

Hate going to the barbers now.
Usually they only want to talk about football, which I have no interest in. I'll chat if they start asking me questions but on the whole I like to get in and out as quick as possible.
When I moved house, I used a place near me and the guy seemed really sketchy. Range rover pulled up outside and he went to chat for 2 mins leaving me in the chair. Turns out he also commuted 90 mins each way from London, and we live in quite a a small town nobody would have heard of so god knows why he wanted to open a barbers here. Reeked of money laundering to me...
I did change my hairstyle last year to a more messy style, on a different barbers recommendation when I said I fancied a change, but it only seems good for a couple of weeks and then needs a cut again...
It's been 2 months since my last cut so I've grown it out a bit and gone back to my boring old side swept hair.

Not being nosey at all, yup, it's all due to that.
I bought myself a pair of hair clippers during covid as I had an interview and looked a mess.
I now carry on doing it myself.
I use a 20mm on top and a 7-9mm on side.
Only trouble I really have is getting the back straight at the bottom with the 0mm.
Its really difficult!
Think the clippers only cost 40.
Saves 12 pounds a go. (probably more now)

Grow it, that saves you £40 on top of the £12
Top to bottom faded or each individual item?

Got some clippers for £20 towards the end of 2020 after finally getting bored of the long hair post lockdown #1. Wished I had done that sooner given the wasted time I sat in the babers waiting for young lads to have unnecessarily complicated hair cuts. Now do a 3 back and sides then a 6 over with top with a razor to tidy the edges.
